Folks,

I think that Kaaren's request is very reasonable, just as it's reasonable to expect that forum grades would sum rather than average.  A cursory glance suggests that there's probably a two-line code change similar to the one we did for forums, but I don't really have time to fully analyze the code to verify that, or to install and test it, before the end of the term.  I'm thinking that we could put this on the list of things to do for Winter (it won't be part of the installed source base when I first put up the instance, but I can probably make the change before the term starts).

The one question I have is the following: how many faculty are using this feature?  If we change the grading on glossaries from average to cumulative, how many people will be thrown off by the new behavior?

David
